In the early 70’s, he moved to Los Angeles, CA where he attended Cleveland Chiropractic College, earning his Doctorate Degree in Chiropractic.
Bill moved to Biloxi, MS after college and opened the Biloxi Chiropractic Clinic on Pass Road. He worked there until his retirement in 2009. He then moved back to the family ranch property near Deep Lake.
In his spare time, Bill thoroughly enjoyed the outdoors, camping, riding four-wheelers, motorcycles, boats, Wave Runners, etc. He was always buying a new “toy” of some kind. He often jested, “I’ve had a lot of fun in my life--far more than most.”
Bill is survived by his sister, Jane Weilep; nieces Shirley Kyllo and Stacy McNamee, and nephews, Sean Sell, Rhett Weilep and Roger Weilep.
He will be greatly missed by his family and friends.
